Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Financial Statements

Note 1—Description of Organization and Business Operations

Organization and General:

Saban Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 15, 2016. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). The Company’s sponsor is Saban Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”).

At June 30, 2018, the Company had not commenced any significant operations. All activity for the period from March 15, 2016 (“Inception”) through June 30, 2018 relates to the Company’s formation and activities related to the initial public offering of Units (as defined below), each consisting of one of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares and one half of one warrant where each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share (the “Public Offering”). The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after completion of the Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and investments from the proceeds derived from the Public Offering and the Private Placement (as defined below). The Company has selected December 31st as its fiscal year end.

Cash

Cash consisted of cash held at two U.S. financial institutions, and is subject to credit risk to the extent that the balance exceeds federal deposit insurance limits.

Financing:

The registration statement for the Company’s Public Offering was declared effective by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 15, 2016. The Public Offering closed on September 21, 2016 (the “Close Date”). The Company’s Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 7,000,000 warrants at a purchase price of $1.00 per warrant, or $7,000,000 in the aggregate, in a private placement at the Close Date (the “Private Placement”). The warrants are included in additional paid-in capital at the balance sheet.

The Company intends to finance a Business Combination with a portion of proceeds from its $250,000,000 Public Offering and $7,000,000 Private Placement (see Note 3). At the Close Date, proceeds from the Public Offering of $250,000,000, net of underwriting discounts of $5,000,000, and $5,000,000 of the Private Placement proceeds, were deposited in a trust account with Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company acting as trustee (the “Trust Account”) as described below.

The Trust Account:

As of September 21, 2016, the net proceeds from the Public Offering and a portion of the Private Placement Proceeds were deposited in the Trust Account. The Trust Account may be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of one hundred and eighty (180) days or less or in money market funds investing solely in United States Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest only in direct U.S. government obligations. Because the investment of the proceeds will be restricted to these instruments, the Company expects to meet the requirements for the exemption provided in Rule 3a-1 promulgated under the Investment Company Act. At June 30, 2018, the funds were invested only in money market funds meeting those certain conditions under Rule 2a-7.

Funds will remain in the Trust Account except for the withdrawal of interest to pay taxes, if any, until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any Public Shares (as defined below) properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance and timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete its Business Combination within 24 months from the Close Date or such longer period as may be approved by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (such period, as may be extended, the “Business Combination Period”), or (iii) the redemption of all of the Company’s Public Shares if it is unable to complete the Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, subject to applicable law. The remaining proceeds outside the Trust Account may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses.

7

Business Combination:

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Public Offering, although substantially all of the net proceeds of the Public Offering are intended to be generally applied toward consummating a Business Combination with (or acquisition of) a Target Business. As used herein, the “Target Business” must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account, net of any deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned, at the time of the Company signing a definitive agreement to proceed with a Business Combination. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for a Business Combination, will either (i) seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination at a general meeting called for such purpose in connection with which shareholders may seek to redeem their shares, regardless of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable, or (ii) provide shareholders with the opportunity to sell their shares to the Company by means of a tender offer (and thereby avoid the need for a shareholder vote) for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to commencement of the tender offer, including interest but less taxes payable. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination or will allow shareholders to sell their shares in a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion, and will be based on a variety of factors such as the timing of the transaction and whether the terms of the transaction would otherwise require the Company to seek shareholder approval, unless a vote is required by Nasdaq rules. If the Company seeks shareholder approval, it will complete its Business Combination only if a majority of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. However, in no event will the Company redeem its Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In such case, the Company would not proceed with the redemption of its Public Shares and the related Business Combination, and instead may search for an alternate Business Combination.

If the Company holds a shareholder vote or there is a tender offer for its Public Shares in connection with a Business Combination, a public shareholder will have the right to redeem its Public Shares for an amount in cash equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest but less taxes payable. As a result, such Public Shares are recorded at their redemption amount and classified as temporary equity in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) except for the portion of Public Shares required to maintain net tangible assets at least $5,000,001. That portion of Public Shares is classified as permanent shareholder’s equity.

The Company is required to complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, which is the 24 month period following the Close Date, as such period may be extended with the approval of the Company’s shareholders. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within this time period, it shall (i) cease all operations except for the purposes of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest, net of taxes payable (less up to $50,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the public shareholders’ rights as owners of Class A ordinary shares (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The Initial Shareholders (as defined below) have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period. However, if the Initial Shareholders acquire Public Shares after the Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the Business Combination Period.

If the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, the resulting redemption of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares will reduce the book value per share for the Founder Shares held by the Initial Shareholders, who would be the only remaining shareholders after such a redemption.

If the Company completes a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, the funds then on deposit in the Trust Account will be used to pay for the Business Combination, redemptions of Class A ordinary shares, if any, the deferred underwriting commission of $8,750,000 and accrued expenses related to the Business Combination. Any funds remaining will be made available to the Company to provide working capital to finance the Company’s business operations.

8

At June 30, 2018, we held cash of $133,491, current liabilities of $1,943,947 and deferred underwriting compensation of $8,750,000. Further, we expect to continue to incur significant expenses in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. Such expenses may be significant, and we expect some portion of these expenses to be paid upon consummation of a Business Combination. We may request additional loans from our Sponsor, affiliates of our Sponsor or certain of our executive officers and directors to fund our working capital requirements prior to completing a Business Combination. We may use working capital to repay such loans, but no proceeds from the Trust Account will be utilized for such repayment. Additional funds could also be raised through a private offering of debt or equity. Our Sponsor, affiliates of our Sponsor, executive officers and directors are not obligated to make additional loans to us, and we may not be able to raise additional funds from unaffiliated parties. Considering these uncertainties, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2018 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any future periods. The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2018.

Emerging Growth Company:

Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.

Concentration of Credit Risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Financial Instruments:

The fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximate the carrying amounts represented on the balance sheet.

Redeemable Ordinary Shares:

All 25,000,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering contain a redemption feature as discussed in Note 1. In accordance with ASC 480, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the Company require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of the entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although the Company did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, its charter provides that in no event will it redeem its Class A ordinary shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to fall below $5,000,001. Accordingly, at June 30, 2018, 23,786,297 of the Company’s 25,000,000 Class A ordinary shares were classified outside of permanent equity at their redemption value.

9

Net Income/(Loss) per Ordinary Share:

The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class F ordinary shares. The Company’s public shareholders have the opportunity to redeem their shares upon the completion of the Business Combination at a per share price that is equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, subject to certain limitations. Accordingly, the Company uses the two-class method to compute the earnings per ordinary share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share separately for each class of ordinary shares based on an allocation of undistributed earnings per the rights of each class. At June 30, 2018, the Company had outstanding warrants for the purchase of up to 19,500,000 Class A ordinary shares. For all periods presented, the weighted average of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted net income/(loss) per ordinary share because its inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As a result, diluted net income/(loss) per ordinary share is equal to basic net income/(loss) per ordinary share. The table below presents for the periods indicated a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used to compute basic and diluted net income/(loss) per share for each class of the ordinary shares:

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of the Company’s balance sheet in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Offering Costs:

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” The Company incurred offering costs in connection with its Public Offering of $802,818, primarily consisting of accounting and legal services, securities registration expenses and exchange listing fees. These costs, along with paid and deferred underwriter discounts totaling $13,750,000, were charged to additional paid-in capital at the Close Date.

Income Taxes:

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

10

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. No amounts were accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at June 30, 2018. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

Exempted companies are Cayman Islands companies wishing to conduct business outside the Cayman Islands and, as such, are exempted from complying with certain provisions of the Companies Law. As an exempted company, the Company has applied for and received a tax exemption undertaking from the Cayman Islands government that, in accordance with Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, for a period of 20 years from the date of the undertaking, no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations shall apply to the Company or its operations and, in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable (i) on or in respect of the shares or other obligations of us or (ii) by way of the withholding in whole or in part of a payment of dividend or other distribution of income or capital by us to the Company shareholders or a payment of principal or interest or other sums due under a debenture or other obligation of us. Consequently, income taxes have not been reflected in the financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 3—Public Offering

In its Public Offering, the Company sold 25,000,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value per share (each, a “Public Share”), and one half of one warrant (“Warrant”). Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share. Warrants may be exercised only for a whole number of Class A ordinary shares; no fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. Each Warrant will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the completion of the initial Business Combination or 12 months after the Close Date, and will expire after the earlier of five years after the completion of the initial Business Combination, or upon redemption or liquidation. Alternatively, if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, the Warrants will expire worthless at the end of such period. If the Company is unable to deliver registered Class A ordinary shares to the holder upon exercise of Warrants issued in connection with the 25,000,000 Units during the exercise period, the Warrants will expire worthless, except to the extent that they may be exercised on a cashless basis in the circumstances described in the Warrant agreement. Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants in whole, but not in part, at a price of $0.01 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption, and only in the event that the last sale price of the Company’s Public Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 (subject to adjustments) per share for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the Warrant holders. The Company has agreed to use its best efforts to file a registration statement for the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants under the Securities Act as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days following the completion of the initial Business Combination.

The Company paid an underwriting discount of 2.00% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, or $5,000,000, to the underwriters at the Close Date, with an additional fee (the “Deferred Discount”) of 3.50% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, or $8,750,000, payable upon the Company’s completion of a Business Combination. The Deferred Discount will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event the Company completes a Business Combination. The underwriters are not entitled to receive any of the interest earned on Trust Account funds that would be used to pay the Deferred Discount. The Deferred Discount is recorded as deferred underwriter compensation at the Company’s balance sheet.

Note 4—Related Party Transactions

Founder Shares

On April 11, 2016, the Company’s Sponsor purchased 5,750,000 Class F ordinary shares (“Founder Shares”) for $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share. In August 2016, the Company repurchased 99,000 Founder Shares from the Sponsor at their original per share issuance price and subsequently issued such number of Founder Shares pursuant to The 2016 Share Award Plan of the Company (the “Plan”) for the same per share price to certain individuals who will assist in the evaluation of investment opportunities, including 10,000 Founder Shares to Adam Chesnoff, the Company’s Director, President and Chief Executive Officer, 8,000 Founder Shares to Niveen Tadros, the Company’s Executive Vice President and General Counsel, 6,000 Founder Shares to Fred Gluckman, the

11

Company’s former Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and 4,000 Founder Shares to Philip Han, the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer. In September 2016, the Company’s Sponsor transferred 30,000 Founder Shares to each of the Company’s independent director nominees at their original per share issue price (together with the Sponsor and the other individuals that received founder shares, the “Initial Shareholders”). On September 15, 2016, the Company effected a pro rata share capitalization resulting in an increase in the total number of Founder Shares issued and outstanding from 5,750,000 to 6,250,000 in order to maintain the ownership of Founder Shares by the Initial Shareholders at 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares upon consummation of the Public Offering. Following the Public Offering and the pro rata share capitalization, the Sponsor held 6,044,570 Founder Shares, each of the Company’s three independent directors owned 32,610 Founder Shares, and the other individuals, including the Company’s executive officers, held 107,600 Founder Shares. On March 16, 2017, concurrent with Mr. Bruce Rosenblum’s resignation from the Company’s board of directors, the Company acquired 25,110 Founder Shares from Mr. Rosenblum and concurrent therewith, in connection with Mr. Casey Wasserman’s appointment to the board of directors, the Company re-issued such 25,110 Founder Shares to Mr. Casey Wasserman, and the Sponsor sold to Mr. Wasserman an additional 7,500 Founder Shares and thereafter held 6,037,070 Founder Shares. On June 26, 2017, the Company entered into agreements to repurchase 6,520 Founder Shares at the initial purchase price, for the total sum of $24, from two individuals no longer providing services to the Company. The repurchase was consummated in July, 2017, at which time such shares were treated as cancelled, reducing the number of issued and outstanding Founder Shares to 6,243,480, and reducing the number of Founder Shares held collectively by individuals previously awarded Founder Shares under the Plan from 107,600 to 101,080.

The Founder Shares are identical to the Public Shares, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as public shareholders, except that: (i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions; (ii) the Initial Shareholders have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed (a) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their Founder Shares and the Public Shares in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their Founder Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Public Shares they hold if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within such time period; (iii) the Founder Shares are automatically convertible into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment pursuant to certain anti-dilution rights, as described in the Company’s Articles; and (iv) the Founder Shares are subject to registration rights. If the Company submits a Business Combination to its public shareholders for a vote, the Initial Shareholders have agreed to vote their Founder Shares and any public shares purchased during or after the Public Offering in favor of the Business Combination. Permitted transferees of the Initial Shareholders will be subject to the same obligations of the Initial Shareholders.

Private Placement Warrants

Simultaneously with the consummation of the Public Offering, the Sponsor purchased 7,000,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, or $7,000,000 in the aggregate, in a Private Placement (the “Private Placement Warrants”). Each Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants were placed in the Trust Account. The Private Placement Warrants may not be redeemed by the Company so long as they are held by the Sponsor. If any Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or certain permitted transferees, such Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the Warrants included in the Units sold under the Public Offering. The Sponsor has the option to exercise the Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis.

The Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by it until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, the proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants then on deposit in the Trust Account will be used to fund the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.

Registration Rights

Holders of the Founder Shares and Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans (and any ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or warrants issued upon conversion of the working capital loans), have registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement signed on the Close Date requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to the Company’s Class A ordinary shares). The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities, Class A ordinary shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants and Class F ordinary shares. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed by the Company subsequent to its completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities

12

pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. However, the registration rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lock up period, which occurs: (i) in the case of the Founder Shares, on the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) if, subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination, or (y) the date following the completion of the Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company public shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property; and (ii) in the case of the Private Placement Warrants and the respective Class A ordinary shares underlying such warrants, 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Related Party Notes

Between Inception and the Close Date, the Sponsor loaned the Company $250,000 in unsecured promissory notes. The funds were used to pay up-front expenses associated with the Public Offering. These notes were non-interest bearing and were repaid by netting against proceeds received from the Sponsor at the Close Date.

On March 12, 2018, the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note (the “Sponsor Convertible Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $1,000,000 from the Sponsor from time to time. The Sponsor Convertible Note bears interest at a rate of 1.96% per annum and all unpaid principal under the Sponsor Convertible Note including accrued interest thereon will be due and payable in full on the earlier of September 21, 2018 and the consummation of the initial Business Combination. The Sponsor will have the option to convert any amounts outstanding under the Sponsor Convertible Note, up to $1,000,000 in the aggregate, into warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a conversion price of $1.00 per warrant. The terms of such warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants, including that each such warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement Warrants. Under the Sponsor Convertible Note, the Sponsor has waived any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of or from the Trust Account, including any right to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any claim against the Trust Account. The issuance of the Sponsor Convertible Note was approved by the Company’s board of directors and its audit committee on March 12, 2018. Executed on March 12, 2018, $500,000 was drawn under the Sponsor Convertible Note on March 20, 2018.

Due to Related Party

Saban Capital Group, Inc. is an affiliate of the Sponsor which advanced various costs on behalf of the Company. Total related party advances amounted to $22,733 for the period January 1, 2018 through June 30, 2018 and were reported as general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2018, the amount due to related party was $77,459. Total related party advances amounted to $26,734 and the amount due was $0 for the period January 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017, and were reported as general and administrative expenses. These amounts do not include amounts owed under the Sponsor Convertible Note.

Administrative Service Agreement

Effective September 15, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to pay monthly expenses of $10,000 for office space, administrative services and support services to an affiliate of the Company’s Sponsor. The agreement terminates upon the earlier of the completion of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company incurred expenses of $30,000 and $60,000, respectively, under this agreement. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company incurred expenses of $30,000 and $60,000, respectively, under this agreement.

Other Related Party Transactions

The Company’s Sponsor, officers and directors, or any of their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. The Company’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to its Sponsor, officers, directors or the Company’s or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on the Company’s behalf, although no such reimbursements will be made from the proceeds of the Public Offering held in the Trust Account prior to the completion of the Business Combination.

13

As described above under Related Party Notes, on March 12, 2018, the Company issued the Sponsor Convertible Note, pursuant to which it may borrow up to $1,000,000 from the Sponsor, from time to time. In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with the Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company additional funds as may be required. If the Company complete a Business Combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. The terms of such additional loans by the Company’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such additional loans. The Company does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor as it does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the Trust Account.

The Company is not prohibited from pursuing a Business Combination with a company that is affiliated with its Sponsor, officers or directors or making the acquisition through a joint venture or other form of shared ownership with its Sponsor, officers or directors. In the event the Company seeks to complete a Business Combination with a target that is affiliated with its Sponsor, officers or directors, the Company, or a committee of independent and disinterested directors, would obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or from an independent accounting firm, that such an initial Business Combination is fair to the Company from a financial point of view. The Company is not required to obtain an opinion with respect to the fairness of the Business Combination in any other context.

After the Business Combination, directors or members of the Company’s management team who remain with the Company may be paid consulting, management or other compensation from the combined company. All of this compensation will be fully disclosed to shareholders, to the extent then known, in the tender offer materials or proxy solicitation materials furnished to the Company’s shareholders in connection with a proposed business combination. It is unlikely the amount of such compensation will be known at the time, because the directors of the post-combination business will be responsible for determining executive officer and director compensation. Any compensation to be paid to the Company’s executive officers after the completion of its initial business combination will be determined by a compensation committee constituted solely by independent directors.

Note 5—Investments Held in Trust Account

Gross proceeds of $250,000,000 and $5,000,000 from the Public Offering and Private Placement, respectively, less underwriting discounts of $5,000,000 were placed in the Trust Account at the Close Date. At June 30, 2018, funds in the Trust Account totaled $253,400,786 and were held in money market funds.

Note 6—Deferred Underwriting Compensation

The Company is committed to pay the Deferred Discount of 3.50% of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering, or $8,750,000, to the underwriters upon the Company’s completion of a Business Combination. The underwriters are not entitled to receive any of the interest earned on Trust Account funds that would be used to pay the Deferred Discount, and no Deferred Discount is payable to the underwriters if a Business Combination is not completed within the Business Combination Period.

Note 7—Shareholders’ Equity

Class A Ordinary Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares. Depending on the terms of a potential Business Combination, the Company may be required to increase the number of authorized Class A ordinary shares at the same time as its shareholders vote on the Business Combination to the extent the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with its Business Combination. Holders of Class A ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each held on all matters to be voted on by shareholders. At June 30, 2018, there were 25,000,000 Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding (Public Shares), of which 23,786,297 shares were subject to possible redemption and are classified outside of shareholders’ equity on the balance sheet.

Class F Ordinary Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 20,000,000 Class F ordinary shares. Holders of the Company’s Class F ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each ordinary share. Class F ordinary shares will automatically convert to Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination, initially on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments. The Initial Shareholders, the sole holders of Class F ordinary shares have agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any Class F ordinary shares during the lock up period, subject to certain exceptions.

14

On June 26, 2017, the Company entered into agreements to repurchase 6,520 Class F ordinary shares at the initial purchase price, for the total sum of $24, from two individuals no longer providing services to the Company. The repurchase was consummated in July, 2017, at which time such shares were treated as cancelled, reducing the number of issued and outstanding Class F ordinary shares to 6,243,480. At June 30, 2018, there were 6,243,480 Class F ordinary shares issued and outstanding.

Preferred Shares

The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 preferred shares. The Company’s board of directors has the authority to determine the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, and the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the preferred shares of each series. The board of directors may, without shareholder approval, issue preferred shares with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of Public Shares, and which could have anti-takeover effects. At June 30, 2018, there were no preferred shares issued and outstanding.

Note 8—Fair Value Measurement

The Company complies with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, for its financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at each reporting period, and non-financial assets and liabilities that are re-measured and reported at fair value at least annually. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received to sell an asset or would be paid to transfer a liability (i.e. the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The following table presents information about the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2018, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilized quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize date points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates, and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and includes situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

Description	June 30, 2018		Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		December 31, 2017
Investments and cash held in Trust Account	$	253,400,786	$	253,400,786		—		—	$	251,721,796
Total	$	253,400,786	$	253,400,786		—		—	$	251,721,796

Note 9—Subsequent Events

On August 2, 2018, the remaining $500,000 of the $1,000,000 originally available under the Sponsor Convertible Note was drawn.

Other than the foregoing management has performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date of issuance of the financial statements, noting no other items which require adjustment or disclosure.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

References to the “Company,” “our,” “us” or “we” refer to Saban Capital Acquisition Corp. The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes related thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that are forward-looking and as such are not historical facts. This includes, without limitation, statements under this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding the Company’s financial position, business strategy and the plans and objectives of management for future operations. These statements constitute projections, forecasts and forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these statements. Such statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,”

15

“possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “strive,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. When the Company discusses its strategies or plans, it is making projections, forecasts or forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on the beliefs of, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to, the Company’s management. Actual results and shareholders’ value will be affected by a variety of risks and factors, including, without limitation, international, national and local economic conditions, merger, acquisition and business combination risks, financing risks, geo-political risks, acts of terror or war, and those risk factors described under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 14, 2018 (our “Annual Report”) and in other reports we file with the SEC. Many of the risks and factors that will determine these results and shareholders’ value are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict.

All such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. All subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on the Company’s behalf are qualified in their entirety by this Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.

Overview

We are a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on March 15, 2016 and incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (“Business Combination”). We have reviewed, and continue to review, a number of opportunities to enter into a Business Combination with an operating business, but we are not able to determine at this time whether we will complete a Business Combination with any of the target businesses that we have reviewed or with any other target business. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash from the proceeds of our initial public offering (the “Public Offering”) that closed on September 21, 2016 (the “Close Date”) and the private placement of warrants to purchase our Class A ordinary shares (“Private Placement Warrants”) that occurred at the Close Date, and from additional issuances, if any, of our shares, debt or a combination of cash, shares and debt.

The issuance of additional shares in a Business Combination:

• may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in the Public Offering, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the Class F ordinary shares resulted in the issuance of Class A ordinary shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the Class F ordinary shares;

• may subordinate the rights of holders of ordinary shares if preferred shares are issued with rights senior to those afforded our ordinary shares;

• could cause a change in control if a substantial number of our ordinary shares are issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;

• may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of us by diluting the share ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of us; and

• may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A ordinary shares and/or warrants to purchase our Class A ordinary shares.

Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant indebtedness, it could result in:

• default and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;

• acceleration of our obligations to repay the indebtedness even if we make all principal and interest payments when due if we breach certain covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

• our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt is payable on demand;

• our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt security is outstanding;

• our inability to pay dividends on our ordinary shares;

• using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our ordinary shares, if declared, expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes;

16

• limitations on our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our business and in the industry in which we operate;

• increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation; and

• limitations on our ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, execution of our strategy and other purposes and other disadvantages compared to our competitors who have less debt.

At June 30, 2018, we held cash of $133,491, current liabilities of $1,943,947 and deferred underwriting compensation of $8,750,000. Further, we expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of our acquisition plans. We cannot assure you that our plans to complete a Business Combination will be successful.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, we earned a net income/(loss) of ($543,439) and $210,081, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, we earned a net income/(loss) of ($262,517) and $198,536, respectively. Our business activities consisted solely of interest income of $957,034 and $335,299 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, and $1,678,990 and $546,266 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, earned on the investments held in the trust account and identifying and evaluating prospective acquisition targets for a Business Combination.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On April 11, 2016, Saban Sponsor LLC a Delaware limited liability company (our “Sponsor”), purchased 5,750,000 Class F ordinary shares (“Founder Shares”) for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000, or approximately $0.004 per share. In August 2016, the Company repurchased 99,000 Founder Shares from the Sponsor at their original per share issuance price and subsequently issued such number of Founder Shares pursuant to The 2016 Share Award Plan of the Company (the “Plan”) for the same per share price to certain individuals who will assist in the evaluation of investment opportunities. In September 2016, our Sponsor transferred 30,000 Founder Shares to each of our three independent directors at their original per share issue price. On September 15, 2016, we effected a pro rata share capitalization resulting in an increase in the total number of Founder Shares issued and outstanding from 5,750,000 to 6,250,000 in order to maintain the ownership of Founder Shares by our Initial Shareholders at 20% of our issued and outstanding shares upon consummation of the Public Offering. Following the Public Offering and the pro rata share capitalization, our Sponsor held 6,044,570 Founder Shares and each of our three independent directors held 32,610 Founder Shares and the other individuals, including our executive officers, who were originally issued 99,000 Founder Shares under the Plan held 107,600 Founder Shares. On June 26, 2017, the Company entered into agreements to repurchase 6,520 Founder Shares at the initial purchase price, for the total sum of $24, from two individuals no longer providing services to the Company. The repurchase was consummated in July, 2017, at which time such shares were treated as cancelled, reducing the number of issued and outstanding Founder Shares to 6,243,480, and reducing the number of Founder Shares held collectively by individuals previously awarded Founder Shares under the Plan from 107,600 to 101,080.

On September 21, 2016, we consummated the Public Offering of 25,000,000 Units (which included the purchase of 1,500,000 Units subject to the Underwriters’ 1,500,000 Unit over-allotment option) at a price of $10.00 per Unit generating gross proceeds of $250,000,000 before underwriting discounts and expenses. Prior to the Close Date, we completed the private sale of an aggregate of 7,000,000 Private Placement Warrants, each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share for $11.50 per share, to our Sponsor, at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant.

We received gross proceeds from the Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants of $250,000,000 and $7,000,000, respectively, for an aggregate of $257,000,000. $250,000,000 of the gross proceeds were deposited in a trust account with Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company acting as Trustee (the “Trust Account”). At the Close Date, the remaining $7,000,000 was held outside of the Trust Account, of which $5,000,000 was used to pay underwriting discounts and $250,000 was used to repay notes payable to our Sponsor, with the balance reserved to pay accrued offering and formation costs, business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. In the future, a portion of interest income on the funds held in the Trust Account may be released to us to pay tax obligations.

On September 21, 2016 we invested the funds held in the Trust Account in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), which invest solely in United States Treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of the money market fund’s investments, we do not believe that we are subject to material interest rate risk.

On March 16, 2017, concurrent with Mr. Bruce Rosenblum’s resignation from our board of directors, we acquired 25,110 Founder Shares from Mr. Rosenblum and concurrent therewith, in connection with Mr. Casey Wasserman’s appointment to the board of directors, we re-issued such 25,110 Founder Shares to Mr. Casey Wasserman, and our Sponsor sold to Mr. Wasserman an additional 7,500 Founder Shares and our Sponsor thereafter held 6,037,070 Founder Shares.

On June 26, 2017, as discussed above, the Company entered into agreements to repurchase 6,520 Founder Shares at the initial purchase price, for the total sum of $24, from two individuals no longer providing services to the Company. The repurchase was consummated in July, 2017, at which time such shares were treated as cancelled, reducing the number of issued and outstanding Founder Shares to 6,243,480.

On March 12, 2018, the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note (the “Sponsor Convertible Note”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $1,000,000 from the Sponsor from time to time. The Sponsor Convertible Note bears interest at a rate of 1.96% per annum and all unpaid principal under the Sponsor Convertible Note including accrued interest thereon will be due and payable in full on the earlier of September 21, 2018 and the consummation of our initial Business Combination unless extended by our Sponsor. Our Sponsor will have the option to convert any amounts outstanding under the Sponsor Convertible Note, up to $1,000,000 in the aggregate, into warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a conversion price of $1.00 per warrant. The terms of such warrants will be identical to the Private Placement Warrants, including that each such warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to the same adjustments applicable to the Private Placement Warrants. Under the Sponsor Convertible Note, our Sponsor has waived any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of or from the Trust Account, including any right to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any claim against the Trust Account. The issuance of the Sponsor Convertible Note was approved by our board of directors and our audit committee on March 12, 2018. On March 12, 2018, we borrowed $500,000 under the Sponsor Convertible Note.

At June 30, 2018, funds held in the Trust Account consisted solely of cash and investments. At June 30, 2018, we had cash held outside of the Trust Account of $133,491, which is available to fund our working capital requirements.

At June 30, 2018, we had current liabilities of $1,943,947, largely due to due diligence fees of $1,301,680 related to identifying potential targets and $500,000 which was borrowed under the Sponsor Convertible Note, with the remainder of the balance due to amounts owed to professionals, consultants, advisors and others who performed services related to our Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants or are working on identifying and evaluating a Business Combination. The identification and evaluation of a potential Business Combination is continuing after June 30, 2018 and additional expenses will be incurred. Such expenses may be significant, and we expect some portion of these expenses to be paid upon consummation of a Business Combination. We may request additional loans from our Sponsor, affiliates of our Sponsor or certain of our executive officers and directors to fund our working capital requirements prior to completing a Business Combination. We may use working capital to repay such loans, but no proceeds from the Trust Account will be utilized for such repayment. Additional funds could also be raised through a private offering of debt or equity. Our Sponsor, affiliates of our Sponsor, executive officers and directors are not obligated to make additional loans to us, and we may not be able to raise additional funds from unaffiliated parties. Considering these uncertainties, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

We are required to complete a Business Combination within the “Business Combination Period”, which is the 24 month period following the Close Date, as such period may be extended with the approval of our shareholders. If we do not complete a Business Combination within this time period, we shall (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible, but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares (as defined below), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $50,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining shareholders and the board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to our Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, which will expire worthless if we fail to complete our Business Combination within the Business Combination Period. We intend to use substantially all of the funds then on deposit in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable and excluding deferred underwriting commissions) to complete our Business Combination. Our annual income tax obligations will depend on the amount of interest and other income earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account. We expect the interest earned on the amount in the Trust Account will be sufficient to pay our taxes. To the extent that our ordinary shares or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account after completion of the Business Combination and redemptions of Class A ordinary shares, if any, will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategy.

18

We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimates of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating a Business Combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our Business Combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete a Business Combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of our Public Shares upon completion of a Business Combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such Business Combination.

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

We have no obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities, or entered into any non-financial agreements involving assets.

Contractual Obligations

We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities other than an administrative agreement to pay monthly recurring expenses of $10,000 for office space, utilities and secretarial and administrative services to an affiliate of our Sponsor and the deferred underwriting compensation as further described in Note 6 to the unaudited financial statements contained in this report. The agreement terminates upon the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following as our critical accounting policies:

Offering Costs

We comply with the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering.” We incurred offering costs in connection with our Public Offering of $802,818, primarily consisting of accounting and legal services, securities registration expenses and exchange listing fees. These costs, along with paid and deferred underwriter discounts totaling $13,750,000, were charged to additional paid-in capital at the Close Date.

Redeemable Ordinary Shares

The 25,000,000 Class A ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (each, a “Public Share”) contain a redemption feature under which holders of the Class A ordinary shares may redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon completion of our Business Combination for an amount in cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable). In accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”), redemption provisions not solely within an entity’s control require the security to be classified outside of permanent equity. Ordinary liquidation events, which involve the redemption and liquidation of all of an entity’s equity instruments, are excluded from the provisions of ASC 480. Although we did not specify a maximum redemption threshold, our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that in no event will we redeem our Public Shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to fall below $5,000,001. Accordingly, at June 30, 2018, 23,786,297 of our 25,000,000 Class A ordinary shares were classified outside of permanent equity. We recognize changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying value of redeemable ordinary shares to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Increases or decreases in the carrying value are affected by charges against accumulated deficit.

19

Net Income/(Loss) per Ordinary Share

Net income/(loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) attributable to ordinary shares by the weighted average number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding during the period, plus to the extent dilutive the incremental number of ordinary shares to settle warrants, as calculated using the treasury share method. At June 30, 2018, we had outstanding warrants for the purchase of up to 19,500,000 Class A ordinary shares.

The Company has two classes of ordinary shares, which are referred to as Class A ordinary shares and Class F ordinary shares. The Company’s public shareholders have the opportunity to redeem their shares upon the completion of the Business Combination at a per share price that is equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, subject to certain limitations. Accordingly, the Company uses the two-class method to compute the earnings per ordinary share. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share separately for each class of ordinary shares based on an allocation of undistributed earnings per the rights of each class. At June 30, 2018, the Company had outstanding warrants for the purchase of up to 19,500,000 Class A ordinary shares. For all periods presented, the weighted average of these shares was excluded from the calculation of diluted net income/(loss) per ordinary share because its inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As a result, diluted net income/(loss) per ordinary share is equal to basic net income/(loss) per ordinary share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

To date, our efforts have been limited to organizational activities and activities relating to the Public Offering and the identification and evaluation of prospective acquisition targets for a Business Combination. We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues. At June 30, 2018, the net proceeds from our Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants held in the Trust Account were comprised entirely of money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act, which invest solely in United States Treasuries. Due to the short-term nature of the money market fund’s investments, we do not believe that there will be an associated material exposure to interest rate risk.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, $253,400,786 and $251,721,796 (including accrued interest), respectively, were held in the Trust Account for the purposes of consummating a Business Combination. If we complete a Business Combination within the Business Combination Period, funds then on deposit in the Trust Account will be used to pay for the Business Combination, redemptions of Class A ordinary shares, if any, deferred underwriting compensation of $8,750,000 and accrued expenses related to the Business Combination. Any funds remaining will be made available to us to provide working capital to finance our operations.

We have not engaged in any hedging activities since our inception. We do not expect to engage in any hedging activities with respect to the market risk to which we are exposed.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of June 30, 2018, as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective.

During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
